   I actually do the collection for a well known DNA company… You would probably do a buccal swab test. First you fill out LOTS of paperwork. They do a buccal swab of baby, dad and possibley mom with a long qtip to scrape the cells off of the inside of the cheek (doesnt hurt at all…just makes your mouth dry). Its then sent to a lab where they break down the cells and get the different DNA strands to compare mom to baby, and dad to baby. hope this helps

   He goes to the designated place…shows ID…fills out basic info…gets his mouth swabbed…it’s mailed off and results should be back in a week or so.
